Moving test cases through the workflow

The test cases workflow defines the path a test case takes from the time it is created until it is ready to be used for testing. To move a test case through the workflow, it is assigned to users who perform the required work. When the work is complete, the user adds an event to the test case to move it to the next step in the workflow. Information about events is tracked in the test case workflow history. See Moving items through the workflow.

The default test cases workflow includes events for common actions performed on test cases. See Default test cases workflow. The steps you follow and available actions may be different depending on your team's workflow.

To add workflow events to test cases:

• When working in the Test Cases list, select a test case and click an event on the Workflow bar. Only valid events for the selected test case are available.
• When working in a specific test case, click an event on the Workflow bar.

See Adding workflow events to items.

All event information is saved with test cases. To view workflow history, open a test case and click the Workflow tab. See Viewing workflow event history.
